Let me explain this in simple terms, habibi. I usually don't link to the same things as Instapundit because I assume everyone who reads KT also reads Instapundit. (Is there a blog reader who doesn't?) But this is so good I want to make sure you don't miss it: James Lileks responds to Salam Pax's snide "letter to Bush" in the Guardian (which is quoted in Lileks' article). It's the last half of the column. I got pissed when I read Pax's letter, and James called him out far better than I could have (warning: there is a bit of profanity at the beginning).

UPDATE: LGF commented on this too. My post is now really redundant. An LGF commenter contributed an aphorism by Mark Twain:
"If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous, he will not bite you. This is the principal difference between a dog and a man." -- Mark Twain
Yup.

UPDATE: Glenn has a roundup of blog responses to Salam and Lileks.
